- Had a great time at the Sunshine Coast National Art Prize! I didn't take home any prizes, although it turns out I was 4 votes off the winner of People's Choice - its both nice to know I almost hit popular vote & will haunt me forever 😂 I left the house & wore a cute outfit, so I think I won!
- @lillifurfaro.bsky.social are you planning on putting your Bells Hells songs up on streaming/iTunes so I can buy them and then listen to them all the time along with my M9 & VM ones? 🥹
- In very exciting news, I am delighted to be one of the finalists in this year's Sunshine Coast National Art Prize held by the Caloundra Regional Gallery. Patient 46 will be in good company, I am so excited to see multiple other wonderful textiles pieces among the excellent finalists!

- I'm ready to start embroidering again, so obvs I did something SO NICHE. Where my Dropout subscribers at?😂 I had to immortalise my fave @smartypantsdotcom.bsky.social presentation in thread- @paulrobalino.bsky.social unhinged lecture on how to 'upgrade' humans. It always makes me laugh til I cry
- Welp, my big skele didn't get into the textiles art prize finals. It's a bit of a bummer, but luckily I dont base my self worth on how art prizes work out 😂 I know it's a great piece, & it wouldn't have evolved into as impressive a piece as it is if I didn't intend to enter it, so its still a win!
- Plus, this is my competition piece for at least a year, skele has more battles to fight! I'm already lining up another I think might be a good fit 😂😂

- IT IS FINISHED! 346 HOURS LATER IT IS FINISHED! Patient 46, Adult Female, Age 38 is life lived with multiple chronic illnesses and conditions. They are parasitic, feeding on your energy and ability to function, causing you pain and slowly taking you over.
- Oh it is 100cm x 60cm btw! Dorky photo of me with it for scale!
- So close, yet so far! Skele is just missing half her arms, a few mushrooms and grey patches and a bunch of text. Approx 3 weeks til it needs to be done to give me time to wash, mount, frame, photograph and submit. It's.........doable 👀 Sitting at 274 hours so far 🙃
- New skele update! Ya girl has FINALLY finished the second pattern piece and has almost hit 200 hours work on this big fella! I thought you all might enjoy how amusingly too small it looks for the background 😂 I SWEAR it has been sized correctly gang...I swear...It should move along a bit faster now!
- The skele continues, onwards ever onwards! #embroidery #embroideryart #embroideryartist #embroiderypainting #chronicillnessart #chronicillnessartist #chronicillness #chronicallyfullysick #cfs #fibromyalgia #endometriosis #embroiderywip
